Tensions are mounting in Moldova, a small country on Ukraine’s southwestern border, where Russia has been accused of laying the groundwork for a coup that could drag the nation into the Kremlin’s war.
Moldova’s President, Maia Sandu, has accused Russia of using “saboteurs” disguised as civilians to stoke unrest amid a period of political instability, echoing similar warnings from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has meanwhile baselessly accused Kyiv of planning its own assault on a pro-Russian territory in Moldova where Moscow has a military foothold, heightening fears that he is creating a pretext for a Crimea-style annexation.

Despite Moscow’s pleas of innocence, its actions regarding Moldova bear a striking resemblance to moves it made ahead of its annexation of Crimea in 2014, and its full-scale invasion of Ukraine last year.
On Tuesday, Putin revoked a 2012 foreign policy decree that in part recognized Moldova’s independence, according to Reuters.
Then on Thursday, Russia’s Ministry of Defense accused Ukraine of “preparing an armed provocation” against Moldova’s pro-Russian separatist region of Transnistria “in the near future,” state-media TASS reported.
No evidence or further details were offered to support the ministry’s accusation, and it has been rubbished by Moldova.
But the claim has put Western leaders on alert, coming almost exactly a year after Putin made similar, unsubstantiated claims that Russians were being targeted in the Donbas – the eastern flank of Ukraine where Moscow had supported militant separatists since 2014 – allowing him to cast his invasion of the country as an issue of self-defense.

Moldova is ethnically and historically tied to Romania - both are Latin nations.
Watch this start a chain reaction with the “Bucharest 9” (except Hungary perhaps).
Just pray there won’t be a 2014 Ukrainian style western backed coup there...
Fixed.
Answer because its a country near Russia, is not in NATO and is being threatened by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
Russia’s top diplomat said the actions of Western nations could soon turn Moldova into the “next Ukraine,” according to TASS.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused Moldovan President Maia Sandu of being “eager to join NATO.” Sandu, Lavrov said, is “ready to unite with Romania and in fact, to do almost anything.”
Yes, forcing Ukrainians to want to join the EU and have its quality of life vs some Russian-BananaStan economic group.
Theft Of Century: They Made TV Story About Stolen Rural Toilet In Russia
The Russian police are investigating the theft of a public toilet in a village in the Urals. The local media even devoted a TV report to this egregious crime.
According to RIA Novy Den, a significant event took place in the Novoukrainsky village of the Chesmensky district of the Chelyabinsk region four years ago: a cesspool with a wooden plank cabin above it was built next to the local paramedic and obstetric station.
Someone meanly stole the local landmark which cost the budget as much as 10 thousand rubles one frosty night. The head of the village turned to the police to find the criminal who deprived the village of the main center of civilization.
An investigation conducted by a local district police officer led to the trail of an unemployed resident of the same village. The police officer claims that the man was just firing the outdoor public toilet and meanly heating his house with these boards for two days.

I don’t understand, everybody says Putin has lost! It’s over!
Russia is losing, but hasn’t lost ... yet
that’s why Russia is still a menace, and Ukraine still needs help
simple
Now we can understand why Montenegro wanted in NATO.
Is the war over? Putin is losing, being stuck in Ukraine a year later with less captured Ukrainian territory than he had in March 2022.
Better kick Rumania out of NATO before it’s too late!
Ah Moldova, another bastion of some democracy, vital to US interests. Putin must be extinguished before he grabs Moldova too.
If Moldavia is taken by Russia, Romania won’t let that happen. They will go all in defending their Moldavian brothers - they have no choice.
Romania being part of NATO, this means all NATO will be forced to follow up.
At that point its 50/50 on the border of WWIII.
👍
That’s exactly how I read this.
It could easily go nuclear too.
Russia wouldn’t depose their own puppet, genius.
We did that.
My advice, join the Azovs on the front line.
It IS over; Russia has won.
When do the nukes start flying?
